do you have the option to ignore or do you have to enter a fight and find it....?

Differ between random and special encounters. Random ones you can skip with high Outdoor, and you are forced into special ones, which are harmless.

Initially harmless.
The Nukacola truck encounter presents you an opportunity to die if you approach the centaur and not kill him.

Yeah this is something I do not understand...in the encounter that has the least benefit(12 nukas or 24 with high lockpick), why is there a 203 hp centaur guarding it?!
All the others simply have places to search...the clinic, which just has some medical stuff and needler pistols, requires high lockpick. Vertibird and bunker don't require anything, correct me if I am mistaken about that?

Well, in Fallout 1 and 2, special encounters also had a chance of the player dying in them. I don't know why should FOR be an exception.

The Nuka truck and clinic are retarded encounters left over from 2238.

Just because you have one character with all combat maxed out due to nolife farming doesn't mean all of us do, it's a pain to find a special encounter and have to run from critters or abandon locked containers

I think they don't realize that this centaur can be killed easily. Even at level what... 1? All you need is turnbased and agility 10.
Just throw 1 punch and walk away 7 hexes, it won't have enough AP left to attack you.

Just because you have shitty char you don't need to whine about special encounter. You can always just try to kill it (what is basically absurdal ease to kill one single critter) or lure away and try to ninja loot but yeah better to whine.

sudo make math
Centaurs have 200-300 hp
Punch (melee attack for low-strength chars) deals 3-5 dmg.
It will take you some 40-100 turns to kill him in worst case scenario but you'll be getting 12 nukas.
